Yes. Canadian-specification vehicles are treated as Non-GCC imports in the UAE and can be insured once legally imported and registered, subject to individual insurer acceptance.
In more detail
Because Canadian-spec cars are less common in the UAE than American-spec, fewer insurers may have a standing position on a particular model, and quotations are more often referred to an underwriter rather than returned instantly.
Provide the import documents, chassis number and registration card with the request so the underwriter can assess the vehicle rather than guess at it.
Conditions and exceptions
- Cover level and excess are decided case by case.
- History recorded in the origin market, including any salvage record, must be disclosed.
